Salman Khan's Bharat sees good time in box office

Mumbai, Jun 7 (IBNS): Superstar Salman Khan starrer Hindi film Bharat experienced a good run at the Indian box office on the first two days since its release.

The film earned Rs. 73.30 crore on Wednesday and Thursday.

Film critic Taran Adarsh tweeted, "#Bharat puts up a big total on Day 2 [working day after #Eid holiday]... Plexes saw normal decline, while single screens held fort... Saw excellent occupancy in evening/night shows... Overall, 2-day total is superb... Wed 42.30 cr, Thu 31 cr. Total: ₹ 73.30 cr. India biz."

Bharat, which released on the occasion of Eid-Ul-Fitr, is titled after Khan's onscreen role.  The film stars actress Katrina Kaif opposite Khan.

Though Priyanka Chopra Jonas was about to star opposite Khan, the Desi Girl walked out of the project later owing to her engagement with her then boyfriend (now husband) Nick Jonas.

Priyanka's shoes were filled by Kaif, who has shared screen space with Khan in a number of films. Khan and Kaif featured in films like Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya, Partner, Yuvvraaj, Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai.

Apart from Khan and Kaif, Bharat stars Tabu, Jackie Shroff and Disha Patani. Patani, who could be seen in sizzling Slow Motion Song, played the role of a trapeze artist in the film.
